What I meant was that with this new code we have regressed the old
behavior. Basically, imagine a case where no filter was given for any
of the tables. Then after the patch, we will remove all the old tables
whereas before the patch it will remove the oldrels only when they are
not specified as part of new rels. If you agree with this, then we can
retain the old behavior and for the new tables, we can always override
the where clause for a SET variant of command.
